Behind Painted Smiles

Looking in the mirror

And I see

a disappointment

Others see a happy two shoe kid

But I don't know where they get it from

Because I don't act happy

No, I don't feel that way (ahhhh) I

wear a smile

But if anyone even cared

They would wonder why I wear a mask

But they just look past

Staring at the glass

Trying to find the face I knew

Before the shadows cast

Before the sky turned grey and blue

They look right through the screen

They see what they want to see

But nobody knows the space

That's left inside of me (oohhhh) I

wear a smile

But if anyone even cared

They would wonder why I wear a mask

But they just look past

They just look past... (hummmm)
